[lapis void]

it's broken? yeah, MTN hasn't been maintained in some time and has a lot of issues

i don't remember what the license is but you could probably do an unofficial update if it's really badly broken

[restive coral]

I did the mistake of choosing an MTN based map before I got into mods, but boy do I regret it now

it's functional enough to hide its bugs, but once the bugs come out...

[fair vessel]

🐞 🪱 🐜 🪲 🐛

[modest estuary]

better take a pickaxe and smash those bugs

[restive coral]

my favorite part is how the host server crashes when a client that doesn't have MTN tries to join

[modest estuary]

shouldn't the player joining crash instead of the host

how very strange

[fair vessel]

That is odd

I mean, you still need same mods generally anyway but - weird

[dire fractal]

Can I get some help about how to use Customize Exterior? 🥴 uhh.. I think I've set up everything right but when right clicking, no menu pops up. However, there are no errors in the log and it shows that it's selecting.. just that no menu is showing.

Actually, I don't know if I put my stuff in the right place lol help

[naive drum]

Did you put the png or xnb in the Buildings folder, named appropiately?

eg houses need to be named Houses.png or Houses.xnb

[dire fractal]

Is it okay to put folders with the images inside? For organization purposes

[naive drum]

yeah

[dire fractal]

Yeah, they're all there.

[naive drum]

and Buildings is in the Customize Exterior folder, right?

[dire fractal]

Mhm

[naive drum]

and if they're seasonal they're put in subfolders name "spring" etc, with the actual png named houses.png or Coop.xnb or whatever?

[dire fractal]

That comes by default with the content patcher files I think

[naive drum]

no it doesn't content patcher uses the name format [season]_[assetname]

[keen moss]

(It can be different not just {{season}}_assetname) But in general CP packs are structured differently than what CE expects.

[dire fractal]

I see

Let me fix that then

Should I delete the .json files content and manifest?

Inside the cp files

[naive drum]

yeah you don't need those for CE

[dire fractal]

..uhhh weird... I deleted all of mine earlier and parts of my game's graphics went missing, like the cursor, some interior stuff, the entire lower right corner, the day thing in the top right corner...

[naive drum]

Do not delete all manifest.jsons in your mods folder

[dire fractal]

I didn't

[naive drum]

Just the ones in CE's Buildigns folder

also

[dire fractal]

Only the ones inside the buildings folder

[naive drum]

!reset

[native dragon]

See https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Player_Guide/Troubleshooting#Reset_your_content_files for instructions on resetting your game files! You may also want to check this list of XNB > Content Patcher conversions (https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Using_XNB_mods#Alternatives_using_Content_Patcher) to see if there are already replacements for any XNB mods you may have been using :)

[dire fractal]

I fixed it by restoring those items from the recycling bin

Could you just send me an example path while using a CP mod?

[naive drum]

When using a CP mod, you put it in your Mods folder

[dire fractal]

I'm a little confused by Chase's site because of the way the stuff is named

no

[naive drum]

When using Customize Exterior an example path would be something like

[dire fractal]

I mean for using cp mods with ce

[naive drum]

"Mods\CustomizeExterior\Buildings\Alternative\Shed2.png" for a Big Shed

No manifest.json or content.json in CE's thing

[dire fractal]

Alright, I'm gonna try to copy that path

[naive drum]

Alternative was just the subfolder name

you can name the subfolders whatever

[dire fractal]

Does it matter how many subfolders you have ?

[naive drum]

don't nest things 50 layers deep because Windows has a maximum filepath name limit

oh and if CE finds a valid building png or xnb during game start it outputs the subfolder name to the smapi log on the Debug log level which means it shows up in the console always

for seasonal things i have eg Stardew Valley\Mods\CustomizeExterior\Buildings\[CP] HobbitHoles\spring\houses.png
for the spring hobbithole house, and for the winter one it's Stardew Valley\Mods\CustomizeExterior\Buildings\[CP] HobbitHoles\winter\houses.png etc etc

[dire fractal]

Mine's the same way but there's a folder in between CP and the season name, which is the type of buildings there are.. like for example, for Hudson Valley, these would be the different style names like Amherst, Cobleskill, Stonybrook, etc..

[naive drum]

yeah that's fine

i think that cp pack has the buildings named things that aren't the textures' xnb-names

[dire fractal]

Should the buildings be named just plain... barn.png in the seasonal folders or do I leave them as barn_spring.png

Also, sorry for asking so many questions ;;

[naive drum]

barn.png

[keen moss]

Just barn.png within the seasonal folder. Example:

[dire fractal]

Alright, I think I've got it now, tysm

[turbid ravine]

Is there a mod that adds a non-binary gender?

[keen moss]

https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/722

[naive drum]

i think theres one called gender neutral mod

i say as para posts the link

[keen moss]

😛

[turbid ravine]

Omg ty so much

@rare quest i want to believe that ||camilla is about to be a marriage candidate||

What does CP stand for? Club penguin?

[twilit magnet]

Oh, ok ty

[faint wharf]

I'm having slight issues with this mod: https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/4280 but i think its due to the retextures I am using or etc, but I will just delete it since I am unsure if it will even work together with my mods. (also seem to be having other issues with an npc so going to have to redownload them more or likely) my log: https://smapi.io/log/155e1966ba544f53bdceb97a9a258c53

[ashen elbow]

well well well

hot spring farmcave and solo four corners both edit the farm cave

which is causing the other errors

im not sure about the others

[sharp belfry]

finally... stardew 2.0.

[ashen elbow]

I-

Jani

You have

YOu are the most powerful person in the world

[vital sleet]

1k mods i-

[sharp belfry]

🔥

🎵 don't stop me now playing in the distance 🎵

[brittle creek]

gee how does a folder of 1k mods even function

[sharp belfry]

it has 1.5GB

[brittle creek]

gonna be an absolute nightmare when 1.5 comes out

[sharp belfry]

lol yep

[brittle creek]

so uh whats some good mods

you seem to be the most qualified person

[sharp belfry]

word vomit comes out

ok, uh, what kind of mods

[brittle creek]

hmm

not sure aye

[sharp belfry]

cause I can throw my log at you but that might be too much 🤣

[brittle creek]

i think so

lol

whats some of your favourites?

i really like the SVE aquarium and most of trents mods

[sharp belfry]

from what I remember @royal arrow had an itemized 300+ mod list somewhere, it can be a good jumping off point

[brittle creek]

so a recommended mod list somewhere

they dont do mod packs do they?

[sharp belfry]

nah

neither do I

what's good abt that list is it's sortable so much easier to find stuff than with just a log

[brittle creek]

damn that would make things a hell of a lot more simple guess its got plagiarism issues

oh ok

im not looking to go too overboard with mods i prefer quality over quantity

[sharp belfry]

sooo try to get a hold of them or search messages sent by them in here to get that list

ok I found it, happy hunting! https://docs.google.com/document/d/1_qmtiO74ENg99aDL97xhLjVawV5pQLQtmHCidLTnbRc/edit?usp=drivesdk

[brittle creek]

ah nice

ill take a quick look

[sharp belfry]

//disappears to do groceries

[brittle creek]

whats climates of ferngill?

was curious if they added that place i hear it referenced via SVE

nvm lol i just remembered the ferngill republic is the name of the continent rip im thinking of the fern gill isles

[proven thicket]

I don't think I need anymore crop mods.

[dire fractal]

I modified Leah in the Seasonal Outfit mod so she has freckles, taking another mod to mix both portraits... should I share that here and ping the creators of both mods? o:

[fair vessel]

Depends, what are the modification permissions allowed by both mods?

Making a mashup for personal use is always fine, but if you want to share it to be available to others you'll need to make sure you're following the permission restrictions of the original mods (or ask permission from both authors)

[brittle creek]

time to boot up the 30 odd mods i just installed

hopefully no issues

[shut violet]

(also don't share stuff without having permission first)

[tender pier]

Can you change languages of your mods (if they support any other languages)?

[keen moss]

If they support other languages it'll change automatically based on what the games language is set to.

[tender pier]

thank you

[proven thicket]

wow is this is an absolutely massive greenhouse.

[lost imp]

!

That is an insane greenhouse

And giving me "Infinite Ikea" vibes

[thorn needle]

could I add stardew aquarium to an existing save? I'm on 19th of summer year 1

[lost imp]

Sure can!

[thorn needle]

oh great lol

[lost imp]

Make sure you add in the required dependencies, like the Train Station thingy.

[thorn needle]

ok

it won't mess with SVE or anything right?

[lost imp]

(And maybe back up the save, just in case)

Nah, I use both

[thorn needle]

how do I back up the save again?

[lost imp]

No conflicts here

[thorn needle]

just copy it into another folder?

[lost imp]

That would do it! 😄

[thorn needle]

alright thanks!

[lost imp]

Anytime! Happy (modded) farming!

[thorn needle]

thanks!

[proven thicket]

the seasonal villagers mod is so cool

[little apex]

is there any reason why my content patcher isn't working? i have it in my sdv/mods folder, and i have the mods in that folder as well. am i doing something wrong? haven't played/modded the game for over a year

[dire fractal]

@fair vessel True! I'll look at that then c:

Also I need 7 more mods, this number is triggering me gbejngjne

[weary narwhal]

is your pc OK?

[dire fractal]

Yeah c':

Stardew mods are really small

This game is pretty easy to mod and it doesn't ask much to your computer soooo

[weary narwhal]

my sdv kept freezing with sdv expanded on my past laptop

[proven thicket]

[weary narwhal]

guess it should be good now

!log @little apex

[native dragon]

@little apex Can you upload your SMAPI log to https://smapi.io/log (see instructions on that page) and share the link here?

[little apex]

i'll upload in a sec, i think i figured it out

nope nvm i didnt fix anything

https://smapi.io/log/b5468b965e74456db959b813dc40cc09

(i know i need to clean out empty folders, i keep forgetting)

[toxic ridge]

Are there more mods that add more Events to SDV like the one in summer?

@little apex are you sure that the stuff you downloaded is for cp and not a xnb file?

[little apex]

yeah, i downloaded the same mods when i last played the game (~march 2019), i just don't remember how i got them to work

[toxic ridge]

can you link the mod?

[little apex]

there's a couple, one sec

https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/1074
https://www.moddrop.com/stardew-valley/mods/580707-eemies-victorian-buildings-for-cp

oh, there's one that is an xnb file that i just realized, but not either of the two above

[toxic ridge]

there is a cp file for the first one

the second one can be downloaded here: https://www.moddrop.com/stardew-valley/mods/580707-eemies-victorian-buildings-for-cp

If there are more mods of Eemie and such Minerva now manages them

[little apex]

i thought i did download the second one from moddrop?

[toxic ridge]

Nvm I didnt read the log completely, Eemies Victorian Buildings was loaded correctly

[little apex]

okay so now the furniture is working but the exterior buildings aren't, maybe i need to configure it differently?

it's still not working

[toxic ridge]

The Pack from Eemie?

[little apex]

yeah

[toxic ridge]

It will generate a config file after the first start there you can change between Clean, Mossy and Seasonal (Clean is set as default)

[little apex]

i have a config file and set it to seasonal but it still isn't working

oh wait now it's working ??

i literally didn't change anything, it's just working now LMAO

it's giving me a couple errors saying some building files aren't there but i'll deal with that later maybe

thank you @toxic ridge for all the help

[toxic ridge]

Alright hit me up if I can help again, tried to figure out why it wouldnt work even tho everything was correct

[little apex]

yeah i have no idea what happened honestly, just kept launching the game and it works now

[thorn needle]

I went on a mod adding spree for my existing save (summer y1), is there a way to extract them all at once or I gotta do 1 by 1?

I am currently doing some translations rn with someone and it seems we messed up somehow....it says theres something wrong with the jsons file- any help?

Are you creating translations? Edit: And for what? A SMAPI mod or a CP pack, JA pack, STF pack, etc.?

[faint wharf]

i need help installing smapi

or any modding software

I just bought stardew on steam

im using windows

I think I can help u puffle

[idle hill]

thx

[thorn needle]

did u follow the guide btw?

https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Player_Guide/Getting_Started

[idle hill]

oh wait theres a guide

[thorn needle]

ye

[idle hill]

thank you so much

i suck at modding

[fair vessel]

@thorn needle you have multiple copies of a lot of mods, that is the main issue

the error log lists the locations of the duplicate copies, so you can remove the extras

[proven thicket]

I'm gonna start over, but without a greenhouse that is bigger than my own farm.

[silk stone]

what are some hairstyle mods? i think i accidentally added them

[idle hill]

im struggling

it says download in windows,bat. whats that?

[proven thicket]

mmm should I animated gemstones?

[fair vessel]

download the smapi folder
unzip (unarchive) the folder (put it somewhere like Desktop)
inside the folder there is a windows.bat file. double click it to run

[proven thicket]

and i did

[idle hill]

how do i unarchive?

[fair vessel]

windows can do it automatically for zips, just open the zip folder and drag or copy-paste out everything that was inside it

You can also use a program like 7zip (free) or WinZip

[proven thicket]

also just gonna get better fruit trees.

also why does cola still not have a recipe yet?

[thorn needle]

demonic i dont have copies

I think it's because the PPJA files had 1 folder which had like 3 folders in it and i just copied the 3 folders

but I think ur meant to copy the 1 folder

it says this though:" Extract the files and drag + drop all (3) folders into /Mods."

so i thought u just copy the 3 folders

[proven thicket]

k

[idle hill]

alright

i got smapi running

now i just need to know where the mods are

[thorn needle]

nexus is where i get my mods

i think some people use dropmod

[native dragon]

Can you upload your SMAPI log to https://smapi.io/log (see instructions on that page) and share the link here?

[supple echo]

That will give us a lot more information we can pick through in an easier-to-read format than a screenshot 🙂

[viral summit]

I don't see anything in the Error logs folder

Is it in the Saves folder or the Error logs folder?

[robust bison]

error logs folder

[viral summit]

I got nothing there, Is there something wrong with that?

[robust bison]

thats where your error logs should go

do you by chance have 2 copies of the game on your computer?

[toxic ridge]

you can find your logs if you press Windows Button R and write %appdata% there is a stardew valley folder

there are your logs

[proven thicket]

Once again, Daisies from Farmer to Florist were supposed to be a forage item?

[viral summit]

How Do I check if there are two copies of the game?

[toxic ridge]

The easiest way would be through windows search and look for Stardew Valley

[robust bison]

I think you would know if you downloaded 2 different copies though

[proven thicket]

m ok

[viral summit]

Only got one

[robust bison]

thats strange, whatever shows in the SMAPI window should go into a text file in live time

In the greenhouse where I have a ton of crops inside I have no issues

Yo <@&239770080378880001> can we get a pin of Space’s BugNet_2 ? This is a rather common issue with the easy fix of having that.

I understand if no tho

[toxic ridge]

Are there any similiar mods like https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/6688?tab=description that add Festivals? :3

[shut violet]

festival of the mundane

and nikolai adds a festival

[tired brook]

We don't pin mod updates except SMAPI/CP anymore due to issues with a previous pin. Releasing the mod update is almost like pinning it though.

[shut violet]

(but is not the center of the mod)

[toxic ridge]

Awesome! thank you c:

[thorn needle]

animal husbandry adds a couple animal competition events where u choose an animal or pet and u compete aginst others in the town

against*

[keen moss]

(Plus if we did that for Space's mods there would be like 10 in the pins 😛 )

[pine ledge]

Lmaoo

[toxic ridge]

I guess I'll just download all of his mods then

[shut violet]

(and probably 8 of them would be different versions of the same mod)

"json assets 32"

[keen moss]

I try to keep a mental list of what the latest number is when I need to link

[fast river]

32? Haha

[keen moss]

We're up to 43 (at least)

[fast river]

Yup

[shut violet]

😄

[fast river]

I need to do one or two small changes before release

[shut violet]

yeah 32 was the last one i saw linked here but i'm not super around here 😄

And figure out the SMAPI rewrite issue

Or revert to manual patching

i'm undoing that mega storage update

someone help me

@vital spade Hey is there a guide for the aquarium mod?

[violet crown]

I don’t know if there’s a guide. Is there something specific you need help with for the Aquarium Mod?

[vital spade]

guide for what specifically? 😮

[hazy leaf]

the legendary fish it adds?

[vital spade]

yes there is a spoiler on the mod page

[hazy leaf]

It says theyre animated but theres nothing like that in the spawner

[keen moss]

@shell jackal That'd probably be a STF error if anything

[hazy leaf]

i wanted to make a display

the pufferchick is there but nothing else?

[vital spade]

yea we only added 1 fish

[hazy leaf]

wait are there legendary fish that are new???

[shell jackal]

Ah okay. I wasn't sure if it was since the STF store wasn't affected. Only vanilla ones

[vital spade]

I'm really confused lol

[hazy leaf]

This mods also adds a new legendary fish.

[vital spade]

yes?

[hazy leaf]

but all im fishing out of the map is tuna

and those legendary fish arent in the spawner liek the pufferchick is

[vital spade]

you need to meet some specific conditions before you can catch it

||The conditions for catching the legendary fish:

• You must have caught a Pufferfish.
  - A chicken must have laid an egg in your coop.
• There is a 1% chance for catching the legendary fish. This chance is increased 0.5% for every fish donated.||

[hazy leaf]

I know that? would it not show up in the spawner either cause im trying to see if the mod is woring

working*

[vital spade]

I'm not sure, what do you mean by spawner?

[hazy leaf]

Cbj item spawner

[vital spade]

oh it should be in there

[hazy leaf]

Its not there

[vital spade]

I used that to get it multiple times

[hazy leaf]

thats what im trying to say

[fair vessel]

Log then?

[vital spade]

okay I didn't know that was what you meant by spawner sorry. Yea a log would be helpful

[hazy leaf]

this is multi player would that mess it up?

[fair vessel]

Wait the pufferchick is the legendary fish added, isn't it?

[dire fractal]

Hello, my sis is trying to install a mod, but we cant find the place to configure it

I have it with single player so I’m not entirely sure.

I did test it in MP and it worked for me there

so it should work

[fair vessel]

@dire fractal most mods config files will be created the first time you load the game with that mod installed

[vital spade]

I can test again

[hazy leaf]

im getting the log now its multi player so im waiting for the host

https://smapi.io/log/3febcc1faf634a779972d4882f33ac09

@fair vessel maybe that's the problem, im not sure if she did that,ill check, thank you

[hazy leaf]

this is the log they gave me

[fair vessel]

Wait the pufferchick is the legendary fish added, isn't it?
@vital spade clarify on this? Pufferchick and "new legendary fish" are the same thing as I understood it

In case that's the source of confusion here

[vital spade]

Yes

[hazy leaf]

how many legendary fish are there being added just one?

[vital spade]

just one

[hazy leaf]

okay i see

i thought there was more then that XD the spoiler was confusing me sorry about that

[vital spade]

the spoiler never mentions the pufferchick by name

[hazy leaf]

yeah i thought fish was like pural fish not singluar fish

[vital spade]

Nah just the one. "A new legendary" 😛

[hazy leaf]

okay thank you!!! sorry for the confusion

No worries!

Hi im having trouble installing SMAPI, im on mac and when I run the smapi installer it can't locate the Stardew executable even though it's on my desktop. I downloaded via GOG, not using their launcher though if that matters. appreciate any help

[shy orbit]

@little trellis try to give the installer the path "/Applications/Stardew Valley.app/Contents/MacOS" unless you chose a custom install path for the game, in which case it needs that

[supple echo]

I was going to suggest moving the game to your applications folder too

[pastel arch]

It auto detects the default locations, since you've got it on your desktop it can't find it. You'll just need to give it the right path (or move it, yeah)

[shy orbit]

well, i meant giving that path to the smapi installer, but now i suppose the smapi installer would find it if it was there...

[little trellis]

I’ve dropped the app into terminal to give it the path but it won’t recognize that, I’ll try moving it to the application folder though

[shy orbit]

are you sure it's the game executable in the desktop and not a shortcut or whatever the mac equivalent is?

moved it to apps folder and it worked, thanks!

[lucid knoll]

oh lord i was looking for more shane mods and one makes him into sans

and jotaro

[shy orbit]

has anyone had problems with Isla's introduction event part II that should happen after the first part? it should trigger in the beach when the player has seen the first part, it's friday/saturday/sunday, sunny, and when the time is between 6:10 and 9:00 am, but i couldn't get it to trigger with all the conditions met. i tried to start it with debug ebi but it just got me stuck in a dialog loop

[lucid knoll]

which file is shane's spouse room

[flat shuttle]

@fast river How would i edit the save file for spacechase0's magic mod to fix magic not unlocking after talking to the wizard at 3 hearts, visiting the altar and sleeping?

[vital spade]

can you click the altar?

[flat shuttle]

yes and a blank menu with slots for spells i assume and such appear but i have no mana or the analyze spell

[vital spade]

did you check the different blue tabs on the left side?

I had the same issue, the ui confused me

[flat shuttle]

let me load the save and ill share a ss

https://prnt.sc/uytiwn and theres nothing else under the minimap where id assume the mana bar would appear

also still magic level 0

[vital spade]

oh you didn't get the skill up when you slept?

[flat shuttle]

no

is there a console command to trigger it?

[vital spade]

[fair vessel]

can you click the altar?
@vital spade I totally read this as "can you lick the altar" and had no idea what I'd stumbled into 😳

[vital spade]

licking is a sort of clicking? 😛

[fair vessel]

[vital spade]

hey you said it not me !

[fair vessel]

can you click it with your tongue~

[dire fractal]

Hey fancy orange people sorry to interrupt, I see sve is not on nexus right now, is there anywhere I can install it in the mean time

[flat shuttle]

i saw a few others saying they had this issue on the mod issues page on nexus but i saw space was in this chat so i figured id ask here

[fair vessel]

@dire fractal I heard from someone that SVE has a discord maybe, you could try there?

[dire fractal]

Thank you Ill see what I can do

[flat shuttle]

no nine they are having issues with a different launcher and refuse to unhide it on nexus until its been out a week there but it cant open there because of technical issues

[fair vessel]

that or try messaging Flash, he's the one with insider knowledge on the whole "temp hidden" thing

[dire fractal]

Good to know, I have no idea who flash is so I may just have to wait for now

[flat shuttle]

someone asked in their discord where to download it since nexus was down and the other site just lead to nexus and they were told to wait for the release...kinda a bad idea to not allow anyone to download your current version when your new version is broken atm but hey they do them.

[fair vessel]

yeah but SVE has never been very user-friendly about old versions - they always get deleted from nexus as soon as a new one goes up

low-key wondering if this will push a wave of new Patreon sign-ups to get beta access

[flat shuttle]

idk but that just put me off their discord so i left. whole thing seems sketchy.

[dire fractal]

Yeah that does, this is my first time installing stardew mods in months so I was confused why it was gone

[flat shuttle]

are you doing a fresh install?

[fair vessel]

why insist on having it available on moddrop for a week before Nexus?? SVE is one of the most popular mods, did ModDrop make a $deal with them to release the new SVE there first to draw in users or???

[dire fractal]

Fresh install?

[flat shuttle]

only source i know of that isnt down is git but it is fairly outdated and idk if it will work since im not sure if stuff needs to be compiled. https://github.com/FlashShifter/StardewValleyExpanded and its a little outdated. git says its on 1.10.8 current is 1.10.20 (not counting the broken new release of 1.11)

[fair vessel]

yeah that's several versions out of date. SVE is not kept open-source & current

[dire fractal]

Ugh mod drop my first ever experiment of mods was on there and it did not run well at all

[flat shuttle]

why insist on having it available on moddrop for a week before Nexus?? SVE is one of the most popular mods, did ModDrop make a $deal with them to release the new SVE there first to draw in users or???
@fair vessel
Idk they said in the discord it was to help get them out there. i kinda wonder if moddrop made a sizable donation for the exclusive rights for a week

[fair vessel]

the github repo also does not include source code

[flat shuttle]

isnt CustomweddingGuests.cs uncompiled source code?

[fair vessel]

that seems like a stray file from the source code yeah, but it's just a piece of it

[flat shuttle]

but yea you could try downloading that if you dont mind playing the old version until this debacle is over but im not positive it would work.

[tired brook]

(You can download the zip from the ModDrop site without needing an account and without using their client.)

[flat shuttle]

SVE's discord made it sound like youd have to use the client for the first week because it was mentioned you "could" uninstall the client after the download

currently the client is the only option and im not downloading it to see if it works for current since i already have it https://prnt.sc/uytsm1

but i think that page is hidden on moddrop too and i only have access because i had the url

[tired brook]

Weird; can you post the URL so I can peek?

[keen moss]

(I don't see it either so wonder if it's URL only)

[tired brook]

I don't see it in the client either. Maybe the update just isn't available yet?

[flat shuttle]

https://www.moddrop.com/stardew-valley/mods/773761-stardew-valley-expanded

[tired brook]

Oh, found it; apparently it's a mod pack, not a mod.

[flat shuttle]

can current be downloaded with the client? might help nine out

[tired brook]

Yeah, there's two versions: one with 33 mods and one with 8.

[flat shuttle]

SVE's discord said it wasn't available anywhere so i took that at face value

@dire fractal if your willing to redownload moddrop looks like its available on their client

[dire fractal]

Is it working currently or is it messed up like talked about earlier

[flat shuttle]

im not sure this whole thing is so strange

[native sequoia]

Isnt it because they're updating the mod?

[flat shuttle]

they ran into an issue during the update and now even the old versions arnt available which almost never happenes with programs. Idk why they are going through this

[tired brook]

Trying it now; seems like ModDrop currently only has a mod pack which links to Nexus to download 1.10. So the update doesn't seem to be on ModDrop either.

[flat shuttle]

dang

[tired brook]

(Tip for modders: this is why you shouldn't delete old versions.)

[keen moss]

Winter Grass should be there...wonder if it got caught up in the queue or something. I remember Cat being asked to & posting it.

[native sequoia]

Hmm

Now im wondering if this is why my file got kinda wack..m

[dire fractal]

Did you buy the beta

[native sequoia]

I forgot
Maybe it's just something else

[flat shuttle]

i refuse, if this didnt happen i might have considered it but this whole thing makes me uncomfortable which is sad because SVE and IMFR are my favorite mods and i would have gladly done it otherwise D;

[dire fractal]

I dont know the legality and norms of mods but could other people technically share their files of SVE for the time being or are we just going to suffur through

[native sequoia]

I dont even know if its sve or a different one of my mods but it causes frame lags

[dire fractal]

Disable sve temporarily

[native sequoia]

Not like during the game like the second the game starts i get 20 errors saying that and i cant

[flat shuttle]

the git lists their license as MIT but since theres no source code there im not sure and since their nexus page is hidden i cant check what they put as redistribution rules there

[native sequoia]

No its one of the mods sve needs not itself i found that out

Ill check which one agian brb

[dire fractal]

Kinda a shame I was looking forward to starting a file with SVE and... 105 other mods I just spent like 3 hours getting set up

[native sequoia]

im freaked out tho it was working fine a couple of hours ago..

Then i try to get on after school and bam errors

[dire fractal]

This is why I avoid mods like it was the plague I say after installing a bunch of mods

[flat shuttle]

im currently running 96 fine

[native sequoia]

im so confused how but

[flat shuttle]

is this an existing save?

[native sequoia]

Yes

[tired brook]

Can you upload your SMAPI log to https://smapi.io/log (see instructions on that page) and post a link here?

[native sequoia]

Sure

[flat shuttle]

whats the quote from android to limit spawns?

that looks identical to what my phone does without that so try that maybe

[flat shuttle]

wow that took some searching

[native sequoia]

hmm ill try

[shy orbit]

@native sequoia you don't seem to have the content patcher part of SVE, which would cause an error like that

[native sequoia]

Oh bruh probably

It would probably be one with [CP] right?

[shy orbit]

in the newest version yes

on the version you have it's still the one that starts with ( i'm pretty sure

[native sequoia]

welp probably deleted it some how then

[fair vessel]

I dont know the legality and norms of mods but could other people technically share their files of SVE for the time being or are we just going to suffur through
@dire fractal yeah it would not be approved to redistribute files to others. Though in practice, tight situations like this often pressure users to do exactly that

[dire fractal]

For now Ill just suffur

[fair vessel]

the old version 1.10.8 being labelled MIT on github doesn't make the newer versions approved to share under same license

[flat shuttle]

it depends on their license tho right? im fairly sure when i posted my mod ot nexus i had to select whether it could be redistributed or not, i know that's why i said i wasn't sure since i couldn't see the current license on nexus

[iron dew]

The only mod I can think of that edits that area is Zoro, but there aren't much custom tiles in that mod.
@heavy sail

For Zoro's boarding house room, his room only edits the walls up to the door. You can open his .tmx file to check it out. The change of color for that part shouldnt be my doing

[fair vessel]

like was said we can't check, but from what I remember SVE almost definitely does not allow redistribution perms

[dire fractal]

So in the meantime is there any good sve substitutes?

[lyric sundial]

Playing a multiplayer game in Stardew Valley Expanded. One of the players (non host) is trying to marry Victor. To my knowledge she has seen the 10 heart event, but is unable to buy the mermaid pendant. She is also unable to buy the bouquet, but another character bought it for her, allowing her to move past 8 hearts.

Does anyone know a fix for this / where I can find more information? The SVE wiki is not being very helpful.

[fair vessel]

this is something for all custom NPCs

you need to reach the 10h milestone for a vanilla NPC in order to obtain the pendant

then you can give it to any NPC, vanilla or custom

same with the 8h milestone with a vanilla NPC to buy bouquets

@lyric sundial WARNING though. A NON-HOST PLAYER MARRYING A CUSTOM NPC will crash your game

(again, not just SVE. This is true for a non-host player marrying any custom NPC)

[lyric sundial]

Oh, that is disappointing. Will it then refuse to launch?

[fair vessel]

It crashes and freezes up, can't progress past the wedding day

usually people need to revert to a prior save backup from before the proposal

There is a little-known workaround that I've heard about, but you have to skip the wedding and I can't guarantee it since it's second hand info. But let me find the link

Interesting. Thank you.

[weary hill]

Trying it now; seems like ModDrop currently only has a mod pack which links to Nexus to download 1.10. So the update doesn't seem to be on ModDrop either.
@tired brook

Just to clarify a couple things about this.

First, we are working hard on a new feature that will enable Mod Authors to have ModDrop find and remove old versions of their mod that were installed manually (or not by MD). This should resolve issues that arise when users have installed mods manually before switching over to using ModDrop.

SVE 1.11 is using a different file structure than previous builds and will be using MD’s new feature to ensure users to aren’t getting errors b/c of outdated files & folders lingering in their game directory.

It’s very important that this feature is full proof, and it’s taken us a longer than expected to iron out all the bugs, which has delayed the release of our next build. We expected to have it out last weekend, which is why Flash initially took the old version of SVE down from Nexus. Unfortunately this feature is taking a bit longer than expected, and b/c SVE 1.11 will be using the feature, it's been delayed.

Sorry for all the confusion around this. We're working around the clock to get everything working as expected so we can push the new build live.

[flat shuttle]

My concern/issue is more of why not unhide the old version on nexus once it was obvious this wasn't going to be a quick fix? there are now a ton of people who want to try the mod and have no access to it and are even looking for alternatives when 1.10.2 could have been unhidden until everything got ironed out. i know yall are probably working on it as best you can but its been down since the 10th, if it was my mod as soon as it became a multiday problem id atleast reopen the old version so new people could still get the mod/didnt go looking for alternatives

[weary hill]

Yeah, fully understand what you're saying. I can't speak to Flash's decision to not un-hide sve 1.10, but I feel we are partially to blame b/c we had expected the delay to only take a few more hours, not days.

[flat shuttle]

Stuff happens with software as the song goes 99 instances of bugs in the code, take one down patch it around 125 bugs in the code haha

[weary hill]

Yeah, that about sums it up.

[brittle creek]

how do you get immersive farm 2 to work

i have the extracted file which has 3 files in it

nothing loads do i have to take one of these files out and use just a single one of them?

because when i begin the game it has no option for immersive farm

its kind of too late anyways i was just curious wtf is up with this mod

[lost imp]

I don't know much about that mod, but I do remember you have to select the default farm to get im2 to work, it "replaces" that map

[brittle creek]

oh shit

that would have been good to know

damn

i selected wilderness

pretty sure i cant change either without breaking my game

thats bs they should totally disclaim that

because i had no idea

[fair vessel]

Yeah you have to use default. It's an easy save file edit to switch maps, though.

Doesn't break the game, and you can use Reset Terrain Features mod and NoClip mod to tidy up things that land in weird spots after the switch

[brittle creek]

hmm ok ill try that now

[fair vessel]

https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Saves#Change_farm_type guide here

[brittle creek]

im pretty sure i tried this once before actually i put in <whichfarm> and got no results

[fair vessel]

You need to replace the part that looks like
<whichFarm>4</whichFarm>
To instead say
<whichFarm>0</whichFarm>

[brittle creek]

this is what happens

[fair vessel]

Switch direction to Down and try?

[brittle creek]

hmm ok one sec

ok that worked

yeah changed it to 0

now i gotta pray

and hopefully head to robin asap haha

[keen rune]

Someone using the economy mod? Does someone know why Im not being charged taxes??

[thorn needle]

if I install a greenhouse mod in a existing save, it should still work right?

I haven't unlocked greenhouse yet

[ashen elbow]

yeah

but you will get trees and crops and shit clipping through ur walls

[thorn needle]

oh

[ashen elbow]

(if greenhouse is already unlocked)

[thorn needle]

no it isn't unlocked yet

[ashen elbow]

then no clipping

[thorn needle]

so it should be fine? no trees/crops clipping?

oh great

thanks

also I have a dialogue mod for all NPCs and another just for alex, is there any way to give alex mod priority?

I know that if the dialogues are in the same thing then only one of them is used, so I wanted to make sure it's the alex mod

can I just add an a to the start of the mod name or something?

[weary hill]

New build of ModDrop is now live

[naive drum]

You'd want to add a Z to the start of the Alex mod name

So general dialogue mod will be applied and edit the data and then Alex only mod will be applied and edit the data

[thorn needle]

oh ok ty

[raw bane]

Help?

[ashen elbow]

!log

[native dragon]

Can you upload your SMAPI log to https://smapi.io/log (see instructions on that page) and share the link here?

[raw bane]

Y’all really don’t wanna help

It just happened randomly when I was walking around the map

The game froze

[brittle creek]

its kind of a pain but you gotta upload the log for someone to give you proper advice im only good enough to solve my own issues on occasion so i dont think i can help but someone likely can

[ashen elbow]

I had asked for a log,, this would help others see the problem better,,

it

[raw bane]

Oof okay

[ashen elbow]

is one of the first steps in reporting bugs

[raw bane]

I’ll do that when I get back home

[brittle creek]

just curious what mods did you download recently and how was it triggered?

im just checking incase its something i myself experienced because i remember the game going black and essentially breaking from leaving the town and entering the farm from certain places due to the pytk mod having a bug which has been fixed now

so if that was your problem you would just need to update ptyk

other then that the only other major issue ive had was duplicate files of custom npcs which is because the SVE mod comes with that mod automatically installed which can be confusing

if the games not loading at all it could be due to an incompatible mod or possibly a lack of modding tool type mods associated with that mod

[shut violet]

the error is uncommon, it looks like a memory issue and may not be related to mods ?

[brittle creek]

which is why i find its important to read all the bug bios in nexus and descriptions before downloading

[shut violet]

like maybe something related to a file with overwrite permission or stuff like this

[brittle creek]

if that is the case then what im saying is irrelevant

[shut violet]

(updating mod is a good idea however)

[brittle creek]

yeah especially modding tool mods

that and just reading their bios and bug reports

i made the mistake of updating pytk too early when it had a bug

could have waited 2 days and it would have been fine if i had updated then

looking forwards to the SVE update however

[raw bane]

https://smapi.io/log/6d916f018b944ec781f3730dca65c7dd

there

[keen rune]

Someone using economy mod?

[ashen elbow]

hm, all i can understand is that error means something bad

[shut violet]

i don't think it's an issue with game itself, rather than something in the computer

but i never saw it before

[toxic ridge]

@raw bane I had it once its either your RAM which can be checked this way: https://www.howtogeek.com/260813/how-to-test-your-computers-ram-for-problems/
or it could be a change or backup in your system which changed the folder settings and now read and write isn't enabled anymore. Just right click the folder where your entire SDV is, chlick on properties and choose security. There should be a tick next to read and write.

[proven thicket]

what

[scenic meteor]

someone mentioned in #756220308368785599 that disabling my mods should be as easy as renaming the mods folder, is this correct?

[keen moss]

Yep you can rename it and it'll be disabled. There's also ModGroups if you're looking to change loadouts https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Player_Guide/Getting_Started#Can_I_have_different_mod_groups.3F

You can also run directly from the normal StardewValley.exe if you want to play without mods.

[supple echo]

yup! SMAPI will still run, but none of the mods will load, making your game basically vanilla with some extra error logging in the background. You can also launch the game through the original vanilla executable and have no SMAPI.

You may notice weirdnesses if going from modded to unmodded on the same save, depending on what you had installed. I think Json Assets (i.e. extra crops and items) is usually the main culprit there, or mods that change the game maps a lot (like SVE).

[scenic meteor]

oh yeah no i dont plan on going into moded saves without mods.

ive got them all named differently

[fair vessel]

@raw bane did you try a computer reboot yet

[supple echo]

!fixanything @fair vessel

[native dragon]

@fair vessel Have you tried turning it off and on again?

[supple echo]

Once I had a RAM issue that meant I couldn't boot up in Mac OS X, but, for some reason, could boot successfully in my Linux dual-install (if I lucked out and the computer didn't make "serious hardware error!!!" beeps as soon as I pushed the on button)

mind you, this probably has nothing to do with the case at hand, it's just a memorable story

[faint wharf]

could I have any help with this? I am 89% sure I put it in correctly, yet it refuses to show.

[fair vessel]

It looks like no portrait is showing at all, which means the dialogue you got is probably portrait-free.

(dialogues starting with % don't show the portrait)

looks like you're set up right.

As long and Portraiture is shown as loading in the smapi log, it's probably working

But you'll need a dialogue-with-portrait-showing to check and press P to cycle into that portrait set

[faint wharf]

Well i found a new thing this npc does too :/ its not allowing me to press "E" and open my character info.

it works when i dont have it in portature or whatever

its just

way zoomed in

[fair vessel]

[native dragon]

Can you upload your SMAPI log to https://smapi.io/log (see instructions on that page) and share the link here?

Kinda frustrating cause apparently the person I worked with who helped translate it, isn't having the same issue. so idk, just gonna end up deleting it ngl, mod frustrated me enough already qwq.

https://smapi.io/log/771ea4b8e424428cbd7c9c256dd3e162

[fair vessel]

Patch error: [CP] NPC Lucas > Load Portraits\Lucas has a FromFile which matches non-existent file 'portraits\Lucas.png'.

This looks like the problem. Did you remove the Lucas portrait from the CP pack? It needs that

[faint wharf]

Nope. i did it the way it was suppose to be.

[outer turret]

I translated him via Google translate. He's sinister. But I didnt try and load him into my game.

[fair vessel]

Well, the content pack for the NPC you have is missing a critical file

One way or another. It needs a portrait file inside the CP pack to work.

You can also have the high-res one in portraiture, but you need the base one to load

[outer turret]

The 'e' thing is due to an error with the social menu.

[fair vessel]

that would explain it - cascading results of game errors from failing to find the portrait file

@faint wharf basically you need to add an image file called Lucas.png inside the [CP] NPC Lucas\portraits\ folder. It doesn't even really matter what the file is, since you are planning to use the portraiture version anyway. So you could throw a renamed copy of Harvey's portraits in if you wanted.

But if you do that, it will fix your portrait issues and your e menu issues at the same time.

[exotic plover]

Hi guys

I have a prob

I was away from stardew valley for months

[exotic plover]

And now m updating my mods

And STE is now hidden

How can i get the last update ?

[fair vessel]

you can't 😐

Well unless you pay $5 on Patreon for advance access

There were some complications delaying the new update longer than expected, but I can't speak to why the SVE creator hasn't un-hidden the older version on nexus until the new one becomes available

it's been hidden for several days now

[exotic plover]

Oh

So i won't play ?

[scenic meteor]

I have the file if youd like it

gave it to someone else last nigh and it worked, dm me if youd like it (my copy is from Oct 7th)

[toxic ridge]

SVE can still be downloaded from github, but idk if its up to date

[grim totem]

Hiya can someone help me please?

[native dragon]

Feel free to ask your question or describe your issue here, and someone will help if they can :)

[grim totem]

My shipping bin

[keen moss]

Oh! I didn't even notice that. The shipping bin changed with 1.4 so it looks like the recolor mod you're using for the building isn't updated to 1.4.

Can you post a link to the mod here?

[rain lava]

doesn't look like vanilla bin lid. I guess something else overwrites

[fair vessel]

Aren't there like 2 places in vanilla that the shipping bin lid is drawn or something?

[rain lava]

nah, lid is drawn once

[grim totem]

https://smapi.io/log/1ad61dc977af465e8c468d461d77a7ab

Was a mod from naver

[keen moss]

Yeah, that's not the vanilla lid. But without knowing which mod it is exactly we can't take a look to see when it was last updated. A lot of Naver mods are XNB as well. They're starting to use Content Patcher but many older ones are still XNB.

Removing the Naver mod will probably solve the issue of the shipping bin being two different colors.

[rain lava]

Yup. if it's xnb then there is not much we can do. The lid looks like the one from 'A Toned Down Stardew Valley'

@grim totem Do you remember how you installed the shipping bin mod? Was it replacing files in Content folder or was it pasted into Mods folder?

[grim totem]

Its not an xnb

And i do have 'a toned down stardew Valley' installed too @rain lava

Its a cp mod

[rain lava]

Ok. That's good. You can try disabling ATDSV to see if it's the one causing the problem. If the lid looks good then we can make a quick dependency and it'll work fine.

[grim totem]

OK thanks. I'll have a go @rain lava

[native dragon]

@grim totem You leveled up to Cowpoke. You can now speak in our voice channels!

Any mods for xbox 1?

[naive drum]

Nope, sorry, Xbox doesn't support modding and is unlikely to ever support modding

[grim totem]

@rain lava disabled it

[rain lava]

waaaaait. You disabled both the mods? I wanted to see if your shipping bin mod from naver will work fine with the ATDSV mod disabled cx

[grim totem]

Just atsdv

[rain lava]

that's some witchcraft 😮 the blue bin is not from atdsdv so why did it vanish as well? I'm a bit lost now... can you send how the manifest.json of the naver shipping bin looks like?

Don't thank me yet. I still don't understand how the blue bin disappeared once you disabled atdsv

so I'm not sure if the dependency will work it out

[naive drum]

maybe the content.json will provide a clue?

[grim totem]

Damn. Its now half n half again lol

[naive drum]

are we sure this mod doesn't just patch the lid to be dark?

[rain lava]

that is soooo weird. With the dependency in the manifest it makes sure that the shipping bin is loaded after atdsv so there is no way it overwrites

that's a good question Wing

[grim totem]

Nope. It definitely should be an all blue bin

[rain lava]

danm, without the mod files i can't do much more :/ can you go into the shipping bin mod assets folder and find cursors.png and send it here?

[grim totem]

https://m.cafe.naver.com/ca-fe/web/cafes/starvall/articles/190719?useCafeId=false

That's the mod if that helps

[rain lava]

can't go in without account

[rain lava]

ok. i think i found something. Do you play SV in korean or different language?

[grim totem]

No lol English

[rain lava]

looool. So imagine my surprise when i look into coding and all is loaded nicely and then boooom , there is a When condition to load only when language is korean xD

I'll fix it. give me a sec

[grim totem]

Thank you 😬😬

Teaches me for using mods off naver 🤣

[royal arrow]

I had that happen to me for a mod off naver as well

[main dust]

Hi guys, I was just wondering what is your favourite big mod in Stardew Valley except SVE, Aquarium and Mermaid Island?

[grim totem]

@royal arrow glad its not just me lol

[naive drum]

I like artisan valley

[main dust]

Ah, I have that but not really sure how to do it lol.

[naive drum]

Walk to desert/garden village is also good

[main dust]

I've never heard of garden village

[royal arrow]

Big-ish also is DeepWoods on nexus, and it's good

[main dust]

"Walk to Garden Woods" is that the one?

Oh yeah I saw that before I think, would it be compatible with SVE or if I've already unlocked the woods?

[rain lava]

Ok. try replacing the content.json with this one and see if it works now 🤞

[naive drum]

Yesh

[royal arrow]

I'm not sure, you'd have to check the mod descriptions o:

[naive drum]

I've used deepwoods with sve before, back when I used sve

[main dust]

Alright, thanks for the mod suggestions guys!

[fair vessel]

hey it's blue now! solved?

[grim totem]

Yes. Thank you 😊

[rain lava]

[fair vessel]

and I was right, the shipping bin lid is in two places in the game files: buildings and cursors
both of them are used. one is for the default, and one is for the buildable shipping bins

[grim totem]

Thanks @rain lava

[violet crown]

That farmhouse is sooo cute with the blue roof and the heart on the door! 🥺

[rain lava]

Nope xD The bin box is in two places. lid is in one. I kinda know a bit after doing this https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/5512

[grim totem]

Cant wait to upgrade and see the next one

[royal arrow]

Yea that drove me crazy when I was using conflicting mods, Jonqora lol because 1 mod replaced 1 version of the shipping bin and the other mod replaced the other version of the shipping bin

Well, per Gwen, the bin is in 2 places, and the lid only in 1 o.o

[fair vessel]

ah it's the bin, not the lid. Got it

Gwen's retextures are all so fancy ✨

[rain lava]

not a fun fact: the bin that is on outdoors tilesheet and the one in the buildings are not properly centered and if you try to center them both one will have it's lid off by some pixels. That was making me mad while making the retexture xD

[exotic plover]

Hey guys i need some help: i have a furniture mod but i want to use another mod that replace only TVs so how can i change only the TVs.

[ashen elbow]

hm

how the heck do u use customize exterior

[fair vessel]

@exotic plover you can add a dependency in the manifest of the TV mod to make it load after the furniture mod
Or you can rename the folder of the TV mod to be later in the alphabet (making it load later)

[exotic plover]

Hmm

I'll try thanks

[ornate urchin]

I look like this in game, but like this in menu, does this happen to anyone else?

It's not really a game breaker just kind of odd

[heavy sail]

that happens to me too, idk what it is

[supple echo]

I think that's what happens when you wear clothes you added with Json Assets! The game/SMAPI doesn't load the assets until you load the save, or something. It's a little weird but harmless.

[ornate urchin]

Ah okay that makes sense, I figured it was something with JA clothing. Just wanted to make sure it wasn't something on my end haha

[heavy sail]

i’ve never seen it show up as a black rectangle tho... mine usually just uses the default farmer clothes 🧐

[ashen elbow]

lol typical JA

[ornate urchin]

It shows up as default clothing when I first load the game, but when I exit back to menu it turns into the rectangle

my sister's farmer just shows up naked lmao

[supple echo]

The black rectangle is not something I've seen, but still sounds like a JA thing

…naked farmers are a weirdly common problem around here 😆

[keen moss]

Are you on Linux?

[ornate urchin]

If you're asking me, no I am not

[keen moss]

Ah just wondering

[royal arrow]

how the heck do u use customize exterior
@ashen elbow It requires a few steps to get started, yea 😅 have you checked out Space's website? I used that for help. I can also share some screenshots of how I have my stuff set up, if that helps
https://spacechase0.com/mods/stardew-valley/customize-exterior/

[ashen elbow]

ah

[royal arrow]

This is the folder structure for buildings that don't have seasonal variants (the file names have to be like this)

for ones with seasonal variants, the individual file names stay the same, but you have a folder for each season, like so

[ashen elbow]

ah i see

[royal arrow]

I hope it helps 😊

[flat shuttle]

how do i change game path when i have 2 modded stardew installs and i need to update smapi on both

how do i change the smapi installers gamepath i mean

[keen moss]

You can just use modgroups instead of two installs of the game if that's why you have two copies https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Player_Guide/Getting_Started#Can_I_have_different_mod_groups.3F

[flat shuttle]

naa im worried steam will update my game breaking mods

so i keep a version in a seperate directory

never mind i found the manual install instructions and they worked

[zealous ingot]

might be a dumb question, but how do u update mods?

[fair vessel]

For most mods, just drag and drop or copy and paste the new files in the same place as the old ones (to overwrite)

[zealous ingot]

ohhh that makes sense! thank you :))

[fair vessel]

For some mods, you'll need to delete the old version and then put the new version in. It will usually mention this in the instructions if required.

[zealous ingot]

thank you so much for your help!! i will definitely do this

[viral summit]

If I use SVE, should Is it reccomended to get a more crop mod for it?

[ashen elbow]

no?

[keen moss]

You can though, they don't interact and it'll just add more content.

[ashen elbow]

AYYY BIRD HHEHE

[modest estuary]

cute birb

what mod is that bird from?

[ashen elbow]

i have too many mods im not sure

[modest estuary]

then I will have to search nexus and find it someday

[shy orbit]

i recently saw some birds in the beach that i don't think i have seen before. i wonder if east scarpe adds birds there too

the ones in the screenshot appear at east scarpe for sure

[viral summit]

Does SVE have new NPC events/dialog for the original cast like leah or abby?

[fleet marsh]

Whoops, wrong channel before. Anyway: "Hm. Anyone know which hairstyle mods don't replace any vanilla hairs? I'm having a hard time figuring it out, most of the hair mods seem to just be like "HAY I GOT HAIR OVER HERE, FRESH HAIRS""

There's my copy and paste

[keen moss]

GetGlam adds new hairs but I hear they're broken currently. Most hairstyle mods are going to use CP which replaces the vanilla tilesheet. Some might extend it downwards which works but I can't think of any off the top of my head.

[naive drum]

Get glam hairs are working for me

[shy orbit]

@viral summit events yeah, not sure about dialog

[fleet marsh]

iirc getglam also had a...delimiter or something built in, didn't it?

Or was that CP I'm thinking of?

[viral summit]

Is it safe to add a mod that adds new dialog?

[fleet marsh]

I remember one of them definitely broke the upper limit on the number of hairs which could be added.

[naive drum]

Get glam does

[shy orbit]

flash has recommended the canon-friendly dialogue expansion in the past at least

[naive drum]

If you have spacecore

If you don't have spacecore there is still a limit

[fleet marsh]

Right, spacecore, that's what I was thinking of

[outer turret]

@ashen elbow @modest estuary that is East Scarpe. Ranch Expansion also adds flamingos for 3 days over summer. I dont make a mention of it as it's fun seeing ppl get puzzled.

[ashen elbow]

aw cool

SHdfgms g i was trying to screenshot those pretty birds for the longest time,, but i kept scaring them,,

[modest estuary]

ooo much thanks

[outer turret]

I did have a mod that changed out all the birds seasonally bit I never released it.

Those ones are hoopoe btw.

[heavy sail]

Does anyone know why this looks like this? https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/678284714829807636/765018594513518642/Stardew_Valley_1.4.5_-_running_SMAPI_3.7.2_with_734_mods_10_11_2020_7_22_24_PM.png

[half mortar]

Hey guys! I'm not new to modding, but I am new to modding Stardew Valley. If SMAPI isn't generating a config.json file for mods, what do I need to do?

[ashen elbow]

not all mods have config.jsons

[half mortar]

https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/1993 This is the one I'm trying to install

I ran the game once and closed it, but no config.json is generating

[shy orbit]

!log

[native dragon]

Can you upload your SMAPI log to https://smapi.io/log (see instructions on that page) and share the link here?

[shy orbit]

that mod should generate a config.json, it's likely that it wasn't loading

[half mortar]

https://smapi.io/log/16e502fd974f48448bfd29acad00d7a9

I had to create my own for the Spooky Dog costume one

[shy orbit]

did you check in the mod folder ([CP] Elle's Seasonal Buildings) for the config.json?

[remote cedar]

forgetting a manifest

[half mortar]

Yes, I did check the folder and I don't see anything there

Well, I see things, just not the config

@remote cedar I'm not sure what that means. I'm installing via Vortex and Nexus

[keen moss]

(That wasn't directed at you)

[half mortar]

Thank you! Sorry 🙂

[remote cedar]

The funny part is

There is no "data" in that folder

But there IS a manifest

[keen moss]

Try redownloading it first. You might have gotten a bad download or something got deleted when copying it over.

[remote cedar]

Nope, same thing.

[keen moss]

As for the config.json, it could be a matter of not having admin privileges if none of them are generating.

[half mortar]

Do you mean computer-wide admin privileges? (I think you were talking to me this time)

[keen moss]

Yes.
Actually I'm curious. https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/5098 Can you download that and see if it lets you change them? It'll be a button on the menu screen in the bottom left-hand corner. That allows you to edit config.json's for (certain) SMAPI mods and CP mods.

That probably won't solve your issue but I wonder if it'll force it to generate one or if it just won't show them.

[half mortar]

Oh, I have that installed already!

[remote cedar]

I'll just wait for it to come back on Nexus.

[half mortar]

And yes, I have full admin access on the PC

[fleet marsh]

Speaking of getglam, I forget, does anyone know how that interacts with the normal dressers?

[high vine]

random question time! is there a mod/any kind of way to turn off all monster spawns in the combat farm map?

[shy orbit]

i was curious about what would happen if you didn't have write permissions on a folder where a CP mod tries to write config.json, and it wouldn't load the content pack: Error loading content pack 'Elle's Seasonal Buildings'. Technical details: System.UnauthorizedAccessException: Access to the path ... is denied

@half mortar are you sure you're checking the right folder, that vortex doesn't have the mod somewhere else?

[dusky relic]

@remote cedar I was having similar problems updating SVE through moddrop, just had to go in and delete the old files then it worked fine. There were only three it missed on mine. And then I also had to download the new IF2 cause I forgot to lol. MODScientist on the SVE discord server was super helpful!

[keen moss]

I'm wondering if Vortex is eating the config's

[remote cedar]

Oh I'm just not going to use ModDrop at all.

I'll wait.

[royal arrow]

Vortex strikes again...

[remote cedar]

This is why I use MO2.

Basic Games Plugin, ho!

[royal arrow]

Manual install works fine for me 😆

[remote cedar]

@remote cedar I was having similar problems updating SVE through moddrop, just had to go in and delete the old files then it worked fine. There were only three it missed on mine. And then I also had to download the new IF2 cause I forgot to lol. MODScientist on the SVE discord server was super helpful!
@dusky relic I'm curious as to how that's possible, given that there is no "data" folder in that directory, even in the original zip.

[shy orbit]

the data folder is generated after playing to store save specific data i'm pretty sure

[dusky relic]

🤷‍♀️ no idea lol. On two of mine it missed during uninstall of the old version (CP and FTM folders for if2) had save data files in them and that was it. the FTM stardew valley one was empty.

[remote cedar]

Then why does SMAPI look for it on first launch, especially a Maifest file?

[shy orbit]

there isn't a [FTM] Stardew Valley Expanded folder in your installation with only the data folder inside?

smapi is descending into the data folder to look for a manifest file because it didn't find it on the parent folder

[viral summit]

How do I move mods to moddrop that have already been extracted?

[dusky relic]

inside the new install there is a FTM Stardew Valley folder with the data folder, but in the main there is also a content and manifest json file

[viral summit]

@dusky relic Are you talking to me?

[dusky relic]

@viral summit I didn’t move any of my already installed mods. It is still working with them.

[remote cedar]

there isn't a [FTM] Stardew Valley Expanded folder in your installation with only the data folder inside?
@shy orbit Nope. The FTM folder only includes the manifest and content json. No data folder at all.

I could create my own to get past it, probably

[shy orbit]

can you send the whole log

!log

[native dragon]

Can you upload your SMAPI log to https://smapi.io/log (see instructions on that page) and share the link here?

[remote cedar]

oh yeah

luckily, already have that up

https://smapi.io/log/071dc905754e49878ae2d314963f8a5a

[shy orbit]

okay, you do have the SVE FTM pack loaded, which is likely the folder that has the manifest etc. you were looking at, and the other folder is somewhere else in your mod setup

it doesn't matter though, unless it confuses a mod manager in case you use one

[remote cedar]

I use MO2, but I haven't ran into this issue previously

I'll have to do some investigating

[fleet marsh]

Hm, is there a mod that stops Shane from drinking when you get married?

A lot of them mostly seem to work around it, and even the big overhauls don't talk about it

[fair vessel]

I think uhh the immersive Shane mod might?

I think it makes beer no longer a loved item after a certain heart level at least

[keen moss]

There's a few but I think they're all parts of something else.

[fleet marsh]

Does it? I was looking through it specifically for that. I'll give that a shot, that should be something

I was looking at Immersive Shane anyway

Thanks!@

[heavy sail]

that zombie outbreak mod is really trying to get to me-

its the fair and shane infected like 20 people-

then abigail on the other side of the map infected like 7

i... think i won

[dire fractal]

Dang Lewis

[outer turret]

@fleet marsh immersive Shane is amazing. He will hate beer after a while. Pair it with clean up Shane's room and Karmyllas Immersive maps for the full experience.

[fleet marsh]

Yeah I was looking at that for a friend. Unfortunately they're not big on modding and it seemed like immersive shane had too many prereqs for just that one mod

Well, paired with the fact that I'm not sure if we'll play long enough for her to end up marrying Shane and it may be moot. Buuuut I'll give it another look before I post the mod list to them

Oh what the heck, I'm sold

[viral summit]

Hey, my game crashed when I tried to go full screen https://smapi.io/log/e8c717d83809479a855cd97fc30ec40e

Is that normal?

[lapis void]

looks like maybe an XNA issue? try restarting your game and see if it still happens

[hushed spoke]

Was advised to ask this in here :)

I've got SV setup with SMAPI all working 100% fine (thanks!) but am having trouble with Steam Broadcast.
Long story short, I get the steam overlay, game audio, can receive viewer messages, and see the viewer count, but it's just a black screen / Steam's "Please Stand By" screen. If I uninstall SMAPI I have no issues, so it does seem to be the cause of the "no video".
I've spent quite a bit of time on google / your wiki / forums etc. but was wondering if anyone here knows a solution?

[outer turret]

@fleet marsh what pre req does it have? I think I only use it with STF, CP and TMXL which are all core frameworks anyway. You dont need BFAV

[fleet marsh]

@outer turret It uses STF, which itself has Expanded Preconditions as a framework, along with I guess TMXL which I didn't actually end up getting because I wasn't aware it was required.

Even if they are core frameworks it turns one mod into 3, two of which I wouldn't have installed otherwise

And since I'm trying to package up and deploy the mods over to my friends before we play it's kind of a "the less, the better" sort of situation and keeping it in single digits and such

[outer turret]

Ah a lot of things use Expanded Precon. Actually it think Imm Shane doesnt use tmxl

[fleet marsh]

A lot of things, maybe, but my friends were pretty adamant about vanilla so I had to really make the case for some staples like the sprinklers mod and such

Shane was one I'm just sneaking in cuz I know a friend goes for Shane but was annoyed with how he was post-marriage

[outer turret]

You may find other mods you like use them though. You can probably do it without the stf function.

It just has hin run the shop on Mondays and Tuesdays.

[fleet marsh]

I might, but when they're all pretty much mod versions and every single mod is kind of a potential point of failure by me not getting them set up right and having threefold blame laid against me I'd rather keep a light touch x.x

Yeah, and I figured that out and just took the bullet so I did install it after all

Cuz tbh it's not a huge huge deal

[outer turret]

We are running co op on over 100 mods.

[fleet marsh]

Yeah my mod list when I played with my other group of friends is a lot more extensive

[outer turret]

If you add in PPJA crops it gets insane.

[fleet marsh]

With this group it's a lot more of "what can I get away with" instead of "how can I change stardew into something else completely"

I don't even know that mod, but I'd believe it

[outer turret]

It adds more crops and stuff.

[fleet marsh]

SVE is still...far, far on the horizon for us, I imagine, in terms of what the benchmarks are for mod complexity

[outer turret]

Also a challenge to uninstall.

Most other mods are fine to remove.

But ones that add actual items? Not so much.

[fleet marsh]

Right, which I'm attempting to avoid anyway

I basically have uhm..

The shane ones, but then just Better Hay, Better Ranching, Sprinklers, LookUpAnything, and as just a fun out of the way treat I added DeepWoods

I thought about trying to find an exceptionally good multiplayer farm but just gave up after a bit. So we'll probably all cram onto a standard farm

And I figure if we start feeling bold we can add more mods as we go.

Heck, I didn't even sneak in the female wizard mod, which I usually love.

[mighty bane]

Hey guys, i think this is where i ask this question- but anyway my question is i'm looking for a polyamorous mod- can someone help me?

[formal sleet]

I'm not sure this exists, this is the closest thing i can find though https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/3857

[mighty bane]

Ah i see, thank you though!

https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/6227 I found this mod, im gonna have a look at it

[supple echo]

@mighty bane look up, I think it's called Poly Friendly Events, by Minerva on Moddrop (I'm on my phone or I'd get you a link). Changes the 10-heart "cheating" events into poly-friendly ones.

[mighty bane]

ooooooh ok! Thanks!

[sharp belfry]

multiple spouses is currently the most extensive poly mod, I highly, highly recommend it

[mighty bane]

Ok!

Thanks for the help guys!

[junior musk]

Is there any reason Expanded isn't on Nexus anymore? I can't seem to find it.

Apparently there's a new version out, but everything's that's been posted on reddit is on moddrop, and... I'm only using Nexus.

[sharp belfry]

it's been removed in preparation for the update that's supposed to come out any day now

[junior musk]

https://www.reddit.com/r/StardewValleyExpanded/comments/jbbsps/stardew_valley_expanded_111_is_now_released/

when you go directly to the SVE link (https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/3753) you can see the following message:

Okay great

It says in one week

I am also curious to know more about that... :/

Don't worry though, you can download it manually and continue using Nexus Mods as normal.

If you're using Vortex you can just drop the file into the "drop zone" at the bottom of the mods tab 🙂

[mighty bane]

Can someone send me some mods?- I'm bored-

[stable cargo]

Which ones do you want? 😛 There's quite a few to choose from https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley

[mighty bane]

got no idea-

Click "Random" on that page if you just want sometime completely unique

[mighty bane]

ok!

[stable cargo]

Just in case you can't see the tab 🙂

[mighty bane]

Thanks!

[thorn needle]

Does anyone know what mod the Fern Islands are from and how to get there? I got a letter in the mail about them but it says nothing about how to get there lol.

[ashen elbow]

it's nonn existent

just a bit of sdv lore i guess

[sharp belfry]

fern islands are a canon location that you can't get to, similar to zuzu city in that regard

[thorn needle]

ah okay, I thought it was a place from a mod I had or something

[sharp belfry]

also I was looking thru the SVE patch notes and

Victor now mentions players as father/mother if married to Olivia. Must be at 8 hearts.
I wonder what it would look like if I married them both using multiple spouses then 😈

[thorn needle]

.....o_o

[ashen elbow]

oh no

[sharp belfry]

oh yes

[ashen elbow]

sigh classic jani

[dire fractal]

So I'm not having a good time. Using SVE, tried to go into the shed on the reimagined map, stuck at 'loading'. (Boarding house and walking to the desert mods also not working, but to be fair I expected that with the new update.)

edit: I deleted most of the NPC adventure mod, I might still have some lingering files though..

All my mods ARE updated (I updated all today, but there are some errors from certain mods that i guess from what I read on their pages have wrong versions written?)

I have a few crashes and angry red lines, so if anyone can make sense of this?? I'd be ever so grateful!

https://smapi.io/log/a16ed2f79d854f669ca0614a6cb583d2

[stable cargo]

@dire fractal How are you installing your mods?

[dire fractal]

downloading them manually then adding them into my mods folder

[stable cargo]

Hmm, weird. This message is a bit odd

Is that mod installed properly?

[dire fractal]

Yeah I did find that one a bit odd, I got it from the nexus site and downloaded manually. Let me have a quick peek inside that folder!

[stable cargo]

Please do.

The others just looks like missing dependencies.

Can you link the Nexus page for that mod?

This one? https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/5221?tab=files

[dire fractal]

Ah, I see the mistake I made for that mod, it specifically needs to be added into moregiantcrops folder - Seems I didn't download that mod despite thinking I had it in there. (I really need to organise my mods better, it's so many-) Thank you for spotting that!

Any clue as to why when I enter the shed in immersive farm map, I get stuck on the loading screen?

[stable cargo]

When I install with Vortex I see this

Are there any characters in there?

[dire fractal]

hey does anyone know if there is a mod that let's u marry absolutely anyone in sdv? (asking for a friend)

[stable cargo]

Custom NPC Yuna - English(ExnoticTest translation)-6766-1-0-1599132566/Portraiture because it's an empty folder.
Looks like it might be missing the actual mod and you only have the translation

[dire fractal]

Seems it's just about popping one into another - I sorted that out just now and hopefully should be okay!

No characters in the shed, it's Stardew valley expanded's shed on the farm map

And the Yuna one, not sure what's going on there actually

One sec!

https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/6766?tab=description < is the Yuna one

Just straight up downloaded the english translation version

[stable cargo]

Hmm I just installed that mod and it seemed to work

Maybe you don't have portraiture installed properly?

[dire fractal]

nobody knows of a marriage mod that lets u marry jodi or caroline?

It could be it? I have it in my mods folder atm- hmmm let me try reintall it

i married kent by replacing his xnb with a bachelor then replacing it back once the we're married. Maybe it can work on jodi?

maybe there isn't a mod for it then...
